Estate-Level Economics of Carbon Storage and Sequestration

Estate-Level Economics of Carbon Storage and Sequestration

The expense of carbon sequestration in terms of capital return deficiency is investigated at estate level, in the case of a fertile boreal estate dominated by spruce forest. Thinnings from below result as a high expense of increased rotation age, thinnings from above as a small expense. The expense...
